Plot[edit]
SpongeBob decides to get a job at the Krusty Krab. He goes there, but loses confidence. Luckily, Patrick helps him regain it. Squidward notices SpongeBob, and realizes he is trying to get a job. He tries to warn Mr. Krabs, but he is too late. Squidward tells him he isn't qualified, so Mr. Krabs gives him a test to get him a turbo spatula. Later, anchovies flood the restaurant, demanding for food. SpongeBob returns with the spatula giving them the Krabby Patties. He gets the job, much to Squidward's dismay. Patrick comes in and asks for one Krabby Patty. SpongeBob overdoes it.
Reception[edit]
This episode was so popular that it got a page on Best TV Shows Wiki. However, its main criticism was the animation, looking choppy and off-putting. However, it was understandable, being the first episode and airing during a time of traditional animation.
